Presentation used as the foundation for the ground-breaking, first-time-ever experiment in instant, live, real-time startup creation. Successful experiment, I must add :) VIDEO IS NOW LIVE: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bS2KKDwOBcs Many thanks to Wouter, Rutger and the gang for letting me run the experiment with utter disregard for the agenda - and to the outstanding Mentors (Ann-Pascale, Bart, Jo, Filip and Jeroen) who helped out! And of course to all participants of TEDxUHasselt who played along with gusto!
